Class action
August Debouzy advised Banque des Territoires (the group Caisse des dépôts et consignations) in the context of its acquisition, alongside Tenergie and Crédit Agricole Pyrénées-Gascogne Énergies Nouvelles, of a minority stake in Terres d'Energie, a holding company of project companies with a wind and photovoltaic portfolio in France of 488MW.
With this financial support, Banque des Territoires becomes the second largest shareholder after Tenergie, which retains control of Terres d'Energie. At the end of 2019, Terres d'Energie holds 851 assets, including 821 rooftop solar installations, 28 ground-based solar power plants and 2 wind farms, for a cumulative installed capacity of 488 MW, mainly in the Provence-Alpes-Côte-d'Azur and Occitanie regions.
In addition, Tenergie, Banque des Territoires and Crédit Agricole Pyrénées Gascogne have entered into a long-term partnership agreement. This agreement, coupled with the Banque des Territoires' entry into the capital of the Terres d'Energie platform, will make it possible to continue developing at least 500 MW of renewable energy projects in mainland France over the next three years.
